On the 8 of March lots of the senior school went down to Victoria park and lots of the other central zone schools.
Westmere school did really well we got in the final with 2 Westmere teams in it and had a fabulous day.
see what one of our students wrote: Inner – School Cricket
Voice booming over the Loudspeaker All players to the gazebo We all ran with enjoyment to the tent And we were sent off again to play our first game. As all the players wondered off with excitement lots of the Westmere teams had a bye there were tones of activities: Like the Kannon Catcher and indoor coaching with one of the Grafton Premier players. Westmere School had 13 teams competing and in the tournament there were 27 teams, so we had nearly half the teams in the competition. In the tournament there were 2 competitions A Grade= which is competitive B Grade= social (for people who have never played and want to have a bit of fun) Westmere played really well we reached the final of both competitions. In the social Westmere 5 unfortunately lost to ST Francis 1 (that was a mixture of boys and girls) In the final there were 2 Westmere teams, Westmere A and Westmere B. Surprisingly the B team bet the A team by one run. So it was a pretty successful day for Westmere and we would like to thank Andy Lane for coming to our school at lunchtime, Kris in room 31 for hosting all the practices and Chris Archie and Ally’s mum for coordinating the teams.
